User folders set up?

Question

Hi All
I have been looking at including, in a users area in the portal, an area where users can store documents (e.g. My Documents Folder) and also view documents relating to their department or company.
However I want to role this out to all users and am not sure how the folders will be displayed. If they were to be displayed by role then a Document Administrator would have access to his personal documents, Global Company Documents and department documents.
Another this as this will be for ALL portal users it needs to be a automated as possible.
Could anyone help me or give me some ideas how this works?  
Thanks in advance and Merry Christmas!

Hi Phil,
There is a couple of ways you can do this.
What you can do is:
Create a role for all user e.g
every_user_role
Create a nother role for the admin user e.g
admin_role
Create a workset
Create a page
Create a navigation iveiw
Add the iveiw to the page
Add the page to the workset
Add the workset as delta link to both every_user_role and admin_role
Open up the every_user_role > workset > page > navigation iView
Select properies and type in the navigation path to the folder you want to make availible to every one.
Save you changes
Open up the admin_role > workset > page > navigation iView.
Select properies and type in the navigation path to the folder you only want to make availible to administrators. Select the layouset you will apply for every user. Save you changes
In the CM you can also set permissions on the folders so you can be sure that only administrators can edit documents.
Hope this will help you
Good luck
